Staying Grounded in Uncertain Times

I’m trying to stay grounded when the world around me feels like the complete opposite! I try to stay informed. I’m not an ignorance is bliss kind of gal. I like to get my hands dirty. I like to think I can be part of the change, moving the world in a positive direction, in every possible way I can; but everything feels SO much bigger than me right now, and I’ve had to tune some things out for my mental sanity. I feel like a coward, like I should be swimming in knowledge at all times or I’m part of the problem, but the reality is…I can’t change the world. I can help, that’s for sure, but I’m looking at things the wrong way, which is why I needed to recenter 🧘🏻‍♀️⁠⠀

⁠This forced isolation & down time is an opportunity to pivot. Not only in my business but as a human on this planet. Being silent right now has it’s positives. What can I do to take care of myself in this moment? How can I heal my pain, that’s directly related to what’s going on in the world, so I can pour positivity right back out into a world that needs it now more than ever. If I’m not well, I’m no good to anyone, and I definitely won’t be able to SAVE THE WORLD, lol 😂

⁠I know this is hard, some of you have lost your jobs, or are on mandatory leave without pay, and that sucks, and I’m sorry! Some of you are sick, or have lost someone, and I’m so sorry. Here’s my question for you… How can you take care of yourself right now? How can you heal your pain so you can go back out into the world, when the dust has settled, and make the world a better place because of the lessons you learned when things were darker than they’ve ever been? What do you need right now? I’m asking myself the same question…let’s do this together. Trying times build warriors. Hard times build strength. Dark times build knowledge. We will come out the other side of this stronger, but use this time to take care of yourself and heal.

How does stress affect the immune system?

ATTENTION IMMUNOCOMPROMISED HUMANS 🙋🏻‍♀️
⁠⠀
I get it, I have Lupus, it’s scary out there for us right now, but let’s talk about stress for a second 👇🏽
⁠⠀
Stress is a MONSTER! Stress lowers your immune system, and what you need now more than anything is an immune system that’s going to fight to keep you safe and healthy. Stress free is the way to be. Easier said than done, I know from personal experience, but you have to override that fear in order to remain healthy. The situation we’re in right now is extremely triggering. I’m living through it with you. I don’t want to get sick, and I don’t want any of the drama that comes along with getting sick, mainly the financial burden of being sick. So I get it, but you have to breathe with me to get through this. Move your body. Meditate. Do this with me, develop healthy routines during this challenging time and stay healthy. ⠀
